Planning in advance for 2013, I bought two pocket-size Moleskine Reporter Pads for myself and my wife, so we could write in them, everything we wished for in the new year.

Waking in the early hours, my wife couldn’t sleep – ideas for the content of her new Gig-Arts website keeping her awake. She quietly tip-toed into the bathroom to record her thoughts. Where’s a handy pocket-size notebook when you need one?!

To the rescue – a discarded Colgate toothpaste carton. It takes scribbling an idea on the back of an envelope to a whole new level.
